Rammstein said it best in We're all living in America
Face it Euros and Canada. You're living in America. You have the option of eating American food, you can wear American clothes, your cinemas show American movies, your TV's broadcast American shows, your radios play American music. All foreign food here is Americanized, the only foreign thing about clothing in America is that it's made in foreign sweat shops. Very rarely do foreign films succeed or even gain a following in America, and if they do they're only those artistic movies. Monty Python is the only non American tv show I know here in America that has a following.
You know who our president is and how our govt works. You know our country issues, you know where our military is. You know everything about our country and if you try talking to an American about any other country, we can't tell you shit. Even Canada and Mexico, the countries we trade with the most, we couldn't tell you much about either country. Why, well one because yes, we are ignorant, but second because we don't have to. The rest of the world could stop or go to war or whatever, radical governmental change, and unless the leader is straight talking shit to America, it won't affect us. Deal with it, you're not as important as you think we are.
Look I know I'm sounding like a typical ignorant American who's sounding butthurt, but I mean, I can afford to be, because in the long run, your country doesn't matter to me. It doesn't have to. Now I know that sounds terrible, and it probably is, but if you don't like it stop caring about America so much. Your hatred and constant bickering about us only proves how much we affect your life.

As a Euro I see America as a living soap opera. While we are force fed American culture there is tonnes or Euro culture in the states which Americans seem oblivious of. I was understood that X factor and America's got talent had a following which is British as well as The Office. As for clothing... The clothes we ware here are very European to the point where bands openly brag about them being designed in London or Paris

America is the trendsetter, no doubt about it.
In other words, the world is fucked.
Let's all prepare for the end times!

The air may smell like bacon to you but that's because you live in the pig pen. The rest of the world has enough of it's own culture to go around.

If you think a pig pen smells like bacon then where you live you are eating inferior bacon. Enjoy your second class citizen meats.

OP - America has a 17 trillion dollar debt, which is mainly owned by Qatar, Saudi Arabia and China. Your leaders are very rich, yes. Your people are not. Your standard of life is routinely listed below countries like Ukraine, Uzbekistan and Malaysia.

You are aware that Dr. Who is British, right?
And I hope you were just quoting the lyric, because that's not the name of the song. And if you think it is you're as bad as those kids on limewire who refer to songs like "Snakebite" by Godsmack or "I like To Ride My Bicycle" by Queen.

Do people still fail to remember how much music is imported (obvious examples: Pink Floyd, The Who)?

I met a young woman from Germany who was visiting a friend of mine in Florida for a couple of weeks. This was her first time in this country, so I asked what her perception of it was. She replied "it's like Disneyland".

Probably. Since good music is dead to the masses, people don't realize that the most influential musicians in history came from most everywhere besides America, with the exception of Elvis.

To be fair, I think singing voices sometimes mask accents so I think some people either assume too much, are completely unaware or both.
